Student ! By David Hill A resolution asking for easing of restrictions on student football tickets was proposed during Wednesday's Student Senate meeting. Sen. Craig Freeman, Towers representative, said the resolution would not be a "demand" resolution, but an "asking" one. "The athletic department doesn't * seem to want to help students get tickets," he said. Freeman said not allowing students to pick up two tickets by using another student's identification, or not being allowed to obtain guest validations are restrictions.

"Who wants to get up at 6 a.m. on a Sunday morning to get tickets," he said. He said other universities have less restrictive policies on tickets. Clemson, for example, allows students with validated identification to sit on the "hill," a large general-admission student section of its stadium, he said. But at Carolina, "the administration seems to make sure they restrict students from getting tickets any way they can."

"Our administration seems to want to make a little money" on tickets, Freeman said. He said he agrees alumni and the public should have a chance at tickets, but "the game is supposed to be for the students." Sen. Bob Vincent, chairman of the Athletic Subcommittee of the Athletic, Communications and OffCampus Committee, expressed the opposite opinion during a report from his subcommittee.

Athletic Ticket Manager Gary Goodman said campout is on a Sunday to avoid conflicts with classes, and allowing one ticket per student is to prevent use of illegally duplicated identification. Validations could cut into supplies for feepaying students, he said.

Acting Dean of Student Affairs Dennis Pruitt addressed the senate and said the Division of Student Affairs sees SG participation as "a veiy valuable experience." He said participation in Student Government is a learning experience where a student learns how to participate as he progresses. That creates a need for advisers, he said. VUSC radio iack on air David Hill A lightning strike caused WUSC/Ts transmitter failure earlier this ek, but the equipment has been ?aired and the radio station is back the air. The station resumed broadcasting at 15 p.m. yesterday, but was to go off i air at 3 a.m. this morning for a eck of newly-installed parts, station inager Andy Shaw said. New parts often have an "unstable Fancy," said Harry Bous, manager Technical Services and the station's ief engineer. He was to check the xts this morning. "Harry's going to see how the parts s holding out," shaw said. Bous said the station was transmitig at 80 percent capacity yesterday. If the parts check out, the station >uld be on the air at full capacity at 9 Ti. today, Shaw said.
